OverView of Sahiya

U said History. So in around 1943 yes 1943 there was single road from Sahiya to Chakrauta(now Chakrata) and all the vehicles mostly Army Vehicles stopped at the gate there.Army men always brought out their football and kicked it towards the sky with full force and when it came down picked it up again and kicked again and so on. Sometime it came down to water flow of the river flowing alongside.
